((I must thank Koren, because he helped me fix my computer problem. Now, my computer no longer locks up and I can actually play the game! Thank you Koren. You rock! If anyone has a Realtek integrated audio card on their motherboard, and their game is locking up, then go into the control panel and then into sound settings. Turn off hardware acceleration. I did this and no I have no more lockups. (Yes all my drivers for everything were updated) Of course I am using software sound, which I am told sucks, so I will eventually buy a sound card thing. Now I will just have to bake cookies again to get a friend to com over and put it in for me. =P Anyway, I'm sure this could help alot of people out there who have the same problem, because I read that realtek makes something like 60% of the onboard audio or whatever. ))
<Raises a glass of wine in the name of Koren>
Cheers mate.
